After calling a late audible, Kentucky will travel to Cleveland to face off against North Carolina Saturday afternoon in the CBS Sports Classic. Top-off is set for 2 pm ET on CBS.
The BBN would be thinking much differently about today’s matchup if Olivier Sarr’s shot from the short corner was a half-inch shorter. Instead of making a game-winner to cap off a 22-point comeback against Notre Dame, the Wildcats are 1-4 for the first time since the 1984-85 season. Standing in between UK and the first five-game losing streak of the Calipari era are the No. 22 North Carolina Tar Heels.
